Feeling very honoured to be in this company on the long list for the Margery Allingham Short Story prize. She is my favourite Golden Age author so this means a lot. #crimefiction #shortstory #crimewriting #theCWA #GoldenAge

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #13: Don't be afraid of failure. Failures are milestones on the road to success. If something hasn't worked, find out why. Take a different approach next time. And remember; every time you try something new, you're running a risk. Embrace it. It's how things get done.

This article in the latest LRB @lrb.co.uk perfectly sums up why I write crime fiction, ‘where the joy is…knowing what’s going to happen but still being delighted when it happens because there are…surprises along the way.’ #crimefiction #amwriting #writingcommunity

This is me all set for an author talk with the Smethwick Ladies Lunch Club yesterday. I was bowled over their enthusiasm and generosity and we had a lot of fun! #authorlife #writinglife #lovereading #crimefiction #lunchclub

A really enjoyable evening thanks to Worcestershire Libraries, listening to @jonathancoe.bsky.social talk about truth and humour and writing about real places and real people. All done in a very warm and encouraging way. Thanks #Bromsgrove #loveyourlibrary

A research day today at my old Uni. Looking very cheerful here considering I’ve just been reading about exhuming bodies #amresearching #writinglife #warwickuni #crimefiction

In this little book lie the key secrets behind book 3 of the new police thriller series. Now all I gotta do is write the rest of the story. Just wanted to capture this moment and share it because it’s a good feeling. #amwriting #writinglife #murdermystery #thriller #crimefiction

Congratulations @djsellersauthor.bsky.social on The Lollipop Man, launched today and a fantastic, compelling read! Super launch party too @waterstones Leeds #thelollipopman #thriller #bookclub #crimefiction #amreading #murdermystery #leeds

Always uplifting to see snowdrops - and always difficult to get a good photo of them! Croome Park last weekend @nationaltrust.bsky.social #wintermagic #winterwalks #snowdrops #winter

Experienced a sound bath on Sunday with gongs. The gongs sounded a bit sinister to me at first but then I had been writing about murder all day! Ever done this? What did you think of it? #amwriting #writingcommunity #yogalife #writinglife

I’ve had a bit of interest in my new poisonous plants book (thanks @wendyhjones.bsky.social ) so here it is. V informative and nicely illustrated too, published by Wooden Books & available from @nationaltrust.bsky.social shops. Enjoy! #crimeauthors #crimefiction #cosycrime #writingcommunity

This is the smile of a crime author who has just bought a book on poisonous plants. Am counting today’s walk as research. #writingcommunity #weekendwalk #amresearching #2025yearofjoy
